This is the 151st episode and today I am here to explain why politics and dance music should not and cannot mix.
If you started listening expecting another EDM mix podcast, a mindless EDM news reader, or some pink cotton feel good social feed then best to go now and not waste your time. If you are easily offended or prefer living in your echo chamber now is the time to go and not waste any more of your precious time. But if you are interested in a discourse and debate on why it is inappropriate to mix dance music with politics then stay on and listen to what we have to say.
With the recent social unsettling in the US at the end of May the ugly head of politics reared its head again, and this time it decided to do so in the dance music community.
Or better to say it was the dance music community (or best to say the vast majority of) who decided to mix dance music with politics. And my question is why?
Who is this good for? Who is this benefitting? And is this actually necessary?
